James C. McCann tells the story of malaria in human, narrative terms and explains the history and ecology of the disease through the science of landscape change. All malaria is local. Instead of examining the disease at global or continental scale, McCann investigates malaria's adaptation and persistence in a single region, Ethiopia, over time and at several contrasting sites. Malaria has evolved along with humankind and has adapted to even modern-day technologicalOhio University Press series in ecology and history.MalariaEthiopiaHistoryMalariaEthiopiaPreventionMalariaHistory.MalariaPrevention.614.5320963McCann James1950-896977MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797213903321The historical ecology of malaria in Ethiopia3850451UNINA
